Tom Savage: 'we can't plateau here' at minicamp, no break time

Houston Texans minicamp is now over, as coach Bill O’Brien pulled the plug a little early. Training camp doesn’t kick off for over a month. That doesn’t mean the players are going to go crazy or get lazy in the meantime.

Quarterback Tom Savage weighed in on why after Wednesday’s session. Savage, the current starting QB, set the tone for the young team around him,

“They say this is a little offseason break but this really isn’t a time for a break. I’m going to get some of the guys together (and) we’re going to throw and kind of just keep moving forward. We can’t plateau here. Go into training camp running.”

He also brought up the importance of working with the receivers during the time off,

“It’s super important. It’s just one of those deals. Those are the rules and we’ll find a way to get out there and throw and bond. It’s more than on the field. It’s off the field; we have to hang out, we have to be around each other. That’s a huge key this offseason.”

What will be interesting to see is if the receivers work out with Savage or rookie challenger Deshaun Watson. Or perhaps the entire group gets together in preparation for training camp in West Virginia next month.
